>Minecraft is finally on Wii U
>after almost four years since release
>it costs $30 fucking dollars
Can we agree this is the perfect example for just how out of touch Nintendo is with the industry?
Say what you want about Minecraft, but it's massively popular and has a huge fanbase. It needed to be on the Wii U years ago.

Yeah its definitely not Microsofts fault, not like they own, developed, and published the game or anything
>>319344439
>Mircrosoft putting a game on Wii U.
So can they throw Banjo on there while they're at it?
>>319344439
>after 7 years Minecraft is still hot shit

It's better that these people don't move on, because if something new comes out and people move on to it I guarantee you it'll be shittier than Minecraft.

>hurff durff, what was the Microsoft deal?
>>319344439
Microsoft getting Minecraft on 360 was possibly the smartest decision they made in years, it helped hardware sales immensely. Maybe if Nintendo had aggressively pushed for Minecraft for Wii U's launch window things would have turned out differently.
I think it has to do with the fact it already comes with a bunch of the DLC already on the disc instead of paying extra for it
>Minecraft
UNDERAGE B&
>this was the big announcement
>Nintendo and Microsoft will use this to put Steve in Smash
It's over.
>>319344439
>Can we agree this is the perfect example for just how out of touch Nintendo is with the industry?
But its a Microsoft game made by a small third party studio. How is Nintendo the one that's out of touch?
>>319344439
It comes with several packs already installed that equal the difference in price.
>>319344853
It isn't.You fucking retard
>>319344439
Some of us liked that nintendo didn't put that piece of shit game.
But whatever, since sm4sh came out Nintendo stopped being the cool guy.
>>319344439
>popular kid game
>not charging as much money as people will pay for
Op, you're the only one who's out of touch
>>319344439
First of all the price is not decided by Nintendo. Mojamg/Microsoft is the publisher, they decide the price.
Secondly, it has been confirmed the game includes several DLC packs and the price match the same price on the Xbox store with said DLC.
And finally
>Minecraft
Kill yourself.
I don't really keep up with the Minecraft community or anything like that but is it really still big enough for this to be considered a big deal?
I feel like it's been a little too long.

what'll we do til then?boohoohoohoo
is this the big announcement ?
>Nintendo decides prices for third party games
ok pal.
I'll buy it but wow was 'big announcement' the wrong way to pitch this.
The reason it never came earlier was because Notch didn't care for the system. Now that he's gone Microsoft doesn't really care and just wants it wherever it can be.
>>319346084
>buying Minecraft on anything but PC
>buying Minecraft at all when it's one of the easiest games to pirate out there
>>319346084
It was just a small hint by the PR indie guy of Nintendo.
Whoever unironically expected something really big is clinically retarded.
>>319344439
>Buying minecraft when you can already have 3D CUBE WORLD on your 3DS.
>>319346294
I don't really care about the price as I have plenty of money. It's just be fun on the gamepad I think and the miiverse community actually might be somewhat interesting for this one.
is this the big announcent?
>>319345173
yeah, that's pretty much happening
>Hey guys, we heard you wanted Banjoo, but heres steve instead!!
T-thanks
>>319344853
yeah it's microsoft in maxx jew mode not like people won't buy it either way
This is the fucking announcement?
>>319345173
I can see that happening and it's pissing off
>>319345173
Brilliant move. Since Nintendo no longer pretends they don't pick characters based on marketing purposes, a character from the gaming phenomenon of this era is a no brainer.
I'm buying it.
I hope they fix some of the pet peeves I had with the PS4 version. I.e. I hated having to exit the game to change its mode or difficulty. Also, I'm sure that they'll make two-player mode have a setting where one person can use the tablet and another person can use the main screen. If that's not the case I'll be triggered.
>this was their big announcement
>>319348905
I expected nothing yet I'm still very disappointed.
>Can we agree this is the perfect example for just how out of touch Nintendo is with the industry?
You do realize it depends on developers actually caring about putting said game on any console, right? And said developer studio being a small third party exclusively made for Microsoft. Don't be surprised about Nintendo only getting this shit now when for all we know, they might have been suppressed by Microsoft themselves or whatever the fuck.
>Nintendo in charge of deciding prices for third party games
Because Notch definitely didn't decide it.
And honestly, third party developers claim so much Nintendo barely has any third party support when they're basically the ones who made their bed by not actively supporting Nintendo in any way and some of them even doing some pretty damn asinine pants-on-head retarded decisions on just how much they intend to support it, by that which I mean zero efforts and are now sleeping on it merely because Nintendo's hesitant about third party support in the first place due to third party support being relatively none. Even if Nintendo somehow had the strongest console in the market, the whole "Nintendo is for kids" idea has been so ingrained on the goddamn video game industry, third parties would STILL not give a shit about Nintendo unless Nintendo bombarded everyone with marketing and go "BY THE WAY LOOK AT THIS SUBPAR DLC RIDDEN GAME, I'M SURE YOU'LL LIKE IT PLEASE BUY OUR CONSOLES BECAUSE THIRD PARTIES ARE OUR ONLY HOPE EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE THE ONES WHO PUT US IN THIS SITUATION" about X game of said third party developer just to slightly gain their attention. And of course, Nintendo still tries to keep the damn thing alive, but they can only have so many projects at a time and whenever they just feel like experimenting and fail, everyone treats it as if Nintendo shouldn't even have bothered and how their console is dying over the slightest mistakes.
